1 lb 90/10 ground chicken
1 lb 98% fat free ground chicken {typically ground chicken breast – can sub ground turkey}
10 oz chopped shitake mushroooms
5 oz chopped baby bellas or white mushrooms
1/2 c white onion diced
4 green onions – white bulb diced and separated from green tops
2 T fresh grated ginger
8 T coconut aminos
6 cloves garlic minced
2 T white wine vinegar
2 t dijon mustard
2 T honey
1 can water chestnuts drained and diced
1/2 T crushed red pepper {more or less based on how spicy you want it}
salt to taste
1 head of butter or Boston bibb lettuce {sometimes labeled “living lettuce”}

Brown chicken {or turkey} in skillet over medium heat until almost completely cooked.
Add mushrooms, onions, white parts of the green onion, ginger, and coconut aminos. Saute until veggies are soft.
Add garlic, vinegar, mustard, and honey to skillet. Mix to combine. Cook 1-2 minutes.
Add water chestnuts and red pepper, plus salt to taste {I added just 1/4t. The aminos give a salty taste without adding sodium}.
Serve hot or cold, wrapped in a leaf of lettuce.
